This article reports an analysis of the societal benefits and costs of recovering school dropouts.
Successful recovery is defined by subsequent graduation from high school.
The analysis is based on established estimates of the societal costs of dropping out including reduced government tax collections and higher social costs of welfare, healthcare, and crime.
These potential costs are cast as benefits when a dropout is recovered.
A large dropout recovery program provides the setting for the analysis.
Rigorous attention is given to accurate estimation of the number of students who would not have graduated without the program in the year assessed and to the induced public costs of their continued education.
Estimated benefits are weighed against the total annual public costs of the program, which operates in 65 school centers and commands an annual budget of about $70 million.
The estimated benefit-cost ratio for this program is 3 to 1, a figure comparable to benefit-cost ratio estimates reported in studies of dropout prevention.
The sensitivity of this conclusion to specific assumptions within the analysis is discussed.
